WR Marquez Ezzard update

Dec 12, 2017

Mentioned on the podcast last week that Coach Dugans seemed to be locking in on Ezzard as the fourth wide receiver target and that it was a real possibility he ended up as a Cane.

I spoke to one source close to Ezzard this morning who confirmed that he is very serious about Miami and the Canes even hold a slight edge. One person who is working hard to recruit Ezzard behind-the-scenes is fellow Georgia product and QB commit Jarren Williams. Williams said he feels like there's a "real good" shot for the Canes here and noted that he will already be enrolled at Miami when Ezzard comes down to Coral Gables on January 18th weekend for his visit, so he wants to be in his ear the whole trip.

That kid is a HAMMER at the WR spot(weird sayin' that, huh). An absolute bully with a fullback's mentality when it comes to contact. He also can make moves in a phone booth, which is rare for such a bulky kid, very very shifty. Looks like his hands are strong & sure, that one-hander that starts his film was amazing. I like what I see and if the staff likes him more than Watt(who I like a lot), I don't see a problem. It's not like he's from Wyoming or some ****, Metro Atlanta competition is pretty **** good in its own right so I'm sure a lot of highlights are against other D-1 prospects. If he wants in, let him in...

James Washington has elite speed. This dude ran a 13 second 100m.

some kids run as fast in pads as they do just running a forty.If you don't have a great start in a forty it can alter your time bigtime.Give me a kid that plays fast in pads.Last time I checked guys aren't running around in shorts.

Yes! Let's hold out for someone who hasn't even announced that he's transferring from his current school. That's a brilliant strategy!!!

We are not dying for a WR. There is a decent chance that Grimes could be available to us. Would rather take a shot with him and if it doesn't pan out, save the spot for 2019.

The staff have said multiple times they'll only go out of state for a player if they can't find what they're looking for in South Florida.

SoFl is hardly lacking for great WR prospects, so clearly they think there's something special about Ezzard.

I'm going to let this one play out.

Not sure if that’s real (or maybe I don’t want it to be real). That’s frighteningly slow. He doesn’t look that slow on tape. Not a burner, but not Aldarius either.

He’s like Brevin Jordan in a WRs body. Not the tallest or fastest, but he’s definitely the most physical and once he catches the ball he runs like a RB.

He chose FSU over GA and others in the first place...No idea if they went back at him after decommit?

Many of you guys complained about Dugans offering Kelvin Harmon also.

He was one of the best ACC WR's last season and was making plays routinely against Clemson. He would have been a starter here and done damage as a 3rd WR at worst.

Put some trust into Dugans evaluations.

After seeing my update, Reaus George also reached out to me and said he’s very close with Ezzard and there is a very good shot with him. Ezzard also retweeted my update, which doesn’t mean much but TIFWIW

If this dude is our 4th WR, that’s a pretty **** good class.

Obviously, #1 duty is getting open and catching the ball. But a physical receiver that can block is an added bonus. Makes the run game that much better.
